1/? Allison Mack, who served time for her role in the cult, NXIVM, just married a so-called "ex"-Neo-Nazi. This is not surprising considering that NXIVM was on Fox News and people have pointed out their links to early MAGA. Mark Vicente is a white South African.

Over a million Georgians will be forced to choose between an astronomical insurance bill and no coverage at all next year.

This shouldn’t be happening in the wealthiest nation on the planet.

It's quite simple: If you don't vote for Democrats, you're abetting the kidnapping, torture, and deportation of your neighbors.

Jasmine Crockett: “Donald Trump has dehumanized people of color for decades. This is who he is. He demanded the execution of innocent black boys. He has been sued many times for racial discrimination. He called African nations shithole countries. He said immigrants poison the blood of our country.“

They fought it because they knew there would never be “integration.” And they were correct. There was only desegregation and we are paying a hard price for it now. We must claw back educating our own children
If your elders are still here, talk to them. Have grace as they share their stories because there is still pain, but listen anyway. Ans remember that this wasn't an issue just in the South. Those from the North or Midwest have stories.

Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply.

We have seen the Trump playbook before. In 2020 it was to pressure election officials to overturn the result of a free and fair election. Now it is to intimidate state legislatures to illegal redistrict. We defeated him the and we will do so again.

REMINDER: Absolutely nothing contained within the so-called Epstein Files will affect Project 2025’s implementation nor Republican traitors’ comfortable hold over our government—much less lead to actual justice for the dozens, hundreds of victims of said abuse by wealthy white men.
So about those Epstein files. Tick tock.

I genuinely believe if asked to choose between publication of all govt-held Epstein files and, say, saving the department of education, there are a ton of blue voters who wouldn’t even let you get past the word files.

The BBC joins a long list of media companies now obeying in advance. I can't say I'm surprised or at this point even angry. It is a structural flaw in legacy media

All I can do is promise that Democracy Docket will never bow down or bend a knee. It will remain unapologetically pro-democracy.
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

New piece:

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

In other words, you can be sure:

IF 900-page Project 2025 mentions a law, govt agency or protective measure,

THEN the Christian White Nationalist overhaul either fully eliminates that law/agency/measure or redefines it to the point of being unrecognizable.

This is what White America chose for us.
As foremost Project 2025 expert, I can confidently confirm: the Christian White Nationalist overhaul permanently dissolves and rewrites all law and govt mentioned.
The recent recategorization of “mandated reporters” of child abuse from what’s left of the Department of Education, is a recent example.

The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food. The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of PFAS — also known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

Took on 38 of these devastating I.C.E. kidnap cases, but can’t seem to get to my 5th successful outcome.

When we hit on obstruction, I usually move to the next appropriate case and keep trying.

After all this, months later, still stuck at 4 victories.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
